I'm still trying to dig up information on this one...

Mrs just called and told me to get ahold of my mom, and make sure she didn't sign onto a medicare supplement? the new supplement/replacement that our government is pushing right now strips these people from being able to go to the doctors and basically doesn't cover them for ****... but telling them when they sign on it's an added replacement onto their medicare...

Anyone up to speed on this one?

The only thing that I've heard about Medicare is that the Part D drug coverage is the way to go on the prescription coverage.

I know that this is not what you are looking for but we/I just had this conversation yesterday with our insurance agent. Sorry I can't be more helpful.

Due to my restrictions with my job I cannot go into complete details. Just be very careful when a salesman is trying to push any medicare program. Read the fine lines. I am sure Russ will dig something up to better explain these programs.

Please warn your parents. This is a government backed program that they are pushing.

change insurance agents.

Rick. I'm interested to hear why the "D" plan is bad? This is not for me but one of my employees' husband who just turned 65. They have some pretty big prescription costs (i.e. diabetic). Feel free to take it off the board if you like. I'm at [email protected]. I can e-mail you my toll free work #. Thanks

medicare perscription plan that is offerred by all these companies are about the same, because the plan was invented by the government.

itr costs about $20 per month with a $250.oo deductable

or $40 per month with no deductable. that should be enough to forget it.

it's been a while since i talked to blue cross about the plan, but ubntil you gat passed the $3600. limitr, the most you can collect or save from the plan is about $1700.00. invest $500.00 and have a maximum return of $1700.00.

i wouldn't put money on that horse.

there are excellent ways to save money on perscription medicine.

if you are interested.
